Jan 2023 - May 2026 · 3 yrs 5 mos · Bay Area
Worked on performance, observability, and AI tooling for an enterprise SaaS platform processing $2.2B+ in gross receipts across 600+ dispensaries.
Cost & Infrastructure
- Drove EC2 right-sizing initiative across the platform that delivered ~$130K/year in run-rate savings while preserving headroom for traffic spikes.
- Migrated services onto Kubernetes and led serverless → AWS CDK conversions, modernizing infrastructure-as-code practices org-wide.
- Drove platform-wide Node.js version upgrades while keeping legacy product APIs running and customers unbroken.
AI & Developer Tooling
- Integrated Claude Code into our GitLab CI/CD pipeline and Slack, so agent-assisted reviews and summaries became part of the daily workflow.
- Built tooling and patterns so engineers could use multi-agent AI systems to ship faster.
Performance & Observability
- Designed caching strategies that eliminated millions of database roundtrips and measurably cut API latency.
- Built N+1 query hunter dashboards in Elastic APM / Kibana - surfaced cases where single API calls were spawning thousands of spans, then drove the fixes.
Leadership & Architecture
- Mentored engineers across experience levels, ran Scrum facilitation, and performed technical interviews that shaped hires across the global team.
- Authored and presented technical designs at dev demos and biannual offsite meetings, aligning teams around scalability and maintainability goals.
- Provided SWAG estimates and translated business requirements into technical solutions with PMs, stakeholders, and engineering peers.
